Default Re: 95 DX Coupe slow daily

Thank you! The next thing I need to do is change my transmission. Since I got the car the input shaft bearing had some play in it. It has gotten way worse since then as I haven't been easy on it. I had gotten a deal on a stage 6 puck XTD clutch that I put in when I did the engine swap but that thing is junk as it cant even hold the whopping 125ish hp. So I have an si trans, exedy pro clutch kit (oem spec) and thinking about a lightweight flywheel. Anyone here used one on a NA single slammer? It is a daily but any performance I can get out of it is a plus so just looking for some low dollar mods. Suggestions?

Those look really good man. I haven't been on really in a while because my dad passed away. So that's been rough. I finally primered my car yesterday so that's a step forward with that though lol.

Damn, I'm really sorry to hear that. I've never been good with losing people I'm close to. It's about as bad as it gets.. I hope you're ok.

Took a few more pics today... was pretty funny bc I went down this dirt trail that had all kinds of ruts and stuff to take a picture and when I was leaving (dragging the bottom of the car 90% of the time) a young dude in a Subaru WRX wagon drives by on the pavement looking at me like WTF lol..

Very clean build, I'm just wondering what you were lowered on. Didn't see you mention that. Sorry if I missed it.

Decided to go all white with the wheels... also got some blue lug nuts and will be matching the calipers when I do my legend/prelude hybrid brake swap.. The lips on the wheels were in rough shape so I think they look better like this.. I need to go ahead n sand n paint the bumpers now. i smoked a shoe on the interstate n it knocked some paint off. there were cars on both sides of me so there was no avoiding it. luckily nothing broke.. what yall think??

I have a Si. And I won't use plastidip. Enamel and gloss are the next steps. New tires. Maybe paint my hub cap covers until I get rims. Or leave them as is. Idk. Then extensions like yours.

Your pics are ******* awesome man. I wish I had time to take some good shots, but with two toddlers there isn't much time for that Your's are great though man. I see where you scraped, shouldn't be hard to fix and repaint.

It's already been lowered a little bit, but after I get the extensions on I may lower it just a little bit more. Then it's on to interior work lol. Which won't be much. That's the easy part lol.

Nice, Si coupes are really hard to find around here. Hell, Si's in general really. I had a hatch but I dig the coupes better. I just got back from a short road trip where I found a cool old building with some nice graffiti soI pulled the car in there. Gunna clean up the pics a little n post them shortly

Whats your plan for the interior? I did a tablet in the dash of my truck and I love the setup so I was thinking about using a jdm audio console I have and move my radio n ac controls to it, an flush mount a 8" tablet where they were. Need to get an alarm and tint first tho..
Here's those pics from earlier..

Oh and if you're into art and don't already know this artist you should look into Alex Pardee. He's my favorite.

Kind of... I'm more into architectural art than anything. Especially very old or very modern design. Sounds dumb but I could stare at an old bridge or building for hours. New Orleans has a ton of them to look at.

Haha I totally understand. I like that as well. Photography, cartooning, pop surrealism, etc But I won't turn your cool car thread into a gay art thread lol.
